(CSSM_CSP_HANDLE CSPHandle,
CSSM_CC_HANDLE CCHandle,
const CSSM_CONTEXT_PTR Context,
CSSM_DATA_PTR RandomNumber)
This function generates random data.
- CSPHandle (input)
The handle that describes the add-in cryptographic service provider module used to perform up-calls to CSSM for the memory functions managed by CSSM.
- CCHandle (input)
The handle that describes the context of this cryptographic operation used to link to the CSP-managed information.
- Context (input)
Pointer to CSSM_CONTEXT structure that describes the attributes with this context.
- RandomNumber (output)
Pointer to CSSM_DATA structure used to obtain the random number and the size of the random number in bytes.
A CSSM return value. This function returns CSSM_OK if successful and returns an error code if an error has occurred.
- CSSM_CSP_INVALID_CSP_HANDLE
Invalid CSP handle.
- CSSM_CSP_INVALID_CONTEXT_HANDLE
Invalid context handle.
- CSSM_CSP_INVALID_CONTEXT_POINTER
Invalid CSSM_CONTEXT pointer.
- CSSM_CSP_INVALID_CONTEXT
Context type and operation do not match.
- CSSM_CSP_INVALID_DATA_POINTER
Invalid or missing output CSSM_DATA pointer.
- CSSM_CSP_INVALID_DATA
Invalid output CSSM_DATA buffer.
- CSSM_CSP_INVALID_ALGORITHM
Unknown algorithm.
- CSSM_CSP_MEMORY_ERROR
Not enough memory to allocate.
- CSSM_CSP_OPERATION_UNSUPPORTED
Generate random service not supported.
- CSSM_CSP_OPERATION_FAILED
Cryptographic operation failed.
- CSSM_CSP_INVALID_ATTR_SEED
Invalid seed attribute in the context if caller provides the seed crypto data structure.
- CSSM_CSP_CALLBACK_FAILED
Seed callback function failed if caller provides a seed callback function.
- CSSM_CSP_INVALID_ATTR_OUTPUT_SIZE
Invalid or missing output length attribute.
Comments
The output can be obtained either by filling the caller-supplied buffer or using the application's memory allocation functions to allocate space; application has to free the memory in this case. If the output buffer pointer is NULL, an error code CSSM_CSP_INVALID_DATA_POINTER is returned.
